In establishing a clue house in New
York for the benefit of the workers on
his railroads Cornelius Vanderbilt has
not only acted with generosity but
what he has done will undoubtedly
conduce to the betternent OF the EN-
ployes. The fact that the privileges
which this club house bestows are not
absolutely free serve to stimulate the
spirit of independence, and makes the
recipients feel that they have a share
in the ownership. Acts such as this
do much toward working out the solu-
ton of vexed economic questions. 1t
may be that In the golden age OF theo-
rist, when poverty shall have been
abolishe! every workingman will be
able to afford membership in > club
house; at until that time we should
gladly welcome every practical effsr'
to link men closer in common brother
hood.

at this place to select delegates to the Common
Pleas judicial Convention at Findlay. The
name OF l.. L. Fink was selected as one of the
delegates and Tyler was selected as an alternate.
In the capacity of Secretary he reversed the two
ma mes, scratching out Finks name and writing
In his own as a delegate. At the Convention
here Tyler made little sp ;eCh telling the as.
somhlcd Democrats what kind of timber should
be sent to judicial convention. He, OF course
arranged to be one of the delegates as tho
strings were to be pulled for Judge Dodge who
had been so kind to him In the past ten years in
influencing the Commissioners to employ him
(Tyler) TO carry ditch and other notices up to
the Supreme Court at very lib cral salary at
the expense OF the taxpayers.

Whit McMahan, both known as Republicans,
who arrived in the nick OF time to work upon
the delegates. This accounts for the charge by
both Democratic and Republican papers OF the
disgraceiul work with the delegates to that con-
| yention.
And now comes another disgraceful move
ment to deceive and delude the voters OF this

over two days, trying to find out something
about ]. II Ridgely. The letters first appeared
in the Toledo Bee purporting to como from law

into the Democrat and News of this place, are
all coined by Dobson, Dodge and Tyler. When

their purpose. what kind OF Justice can We ex

On or about the last week in January
ex. Governor Foster set down his grip

"In Ohio we are solid for Sherman"
said Foster.
"Any more 30 than you were in

"Yesl We are more than convinced
that it will be the wisest thing to do to
nominate Sherman. He is perhaps the
best equipped man for the place in the
country. He would give satisfaction to
all and his nomination would be par
ticularly gratifying to the business men
Of the country, assuring them an en-
inently wise and safe administration Of
the Government"
''How do you regard his chance OF

There was little more Of the inter
view published, but we haye given the
relevant portion simply to show how
political booms are started, and by
